  6. Objectives (2) • Technology objectives - design of the components: • Semantic service bus for registering, discovering and contracting services, as well as for service message routing and processing; • Semantic BPM engine, handling customized processes, workflows and distributed processes built from generic process fragments; • Information flow control between members of the alliance: service message and user context filtering according to specified policies; • Security infrastructure: attribute management, authentication, workflow and service access control, and auditing functionality; • Repositories for processes and ontologies; • Portal server extension for semantic context capturing and communication; • Portal-based interfaces and tools for user-friendly administration of alliances, ad-hoc workflow modeling and process handling..

  10. Pilot applications • 1. Information hotel • Controlling and automation of the supplier vs. client documentation management processes and related sub-processes. • Use cases: uploading, sending, receiving docs from supplier, verifying uploaded docs, verifying received docs near deadline, sending reminder messages to suppliers, ... • 2. Legacy applications • Location of services of partners, integration into workflows. • Use cases: maintenance of service providers, service information and configuration, tracking services, contracting and ordering services,... • 3. Identity federation • Enable access to the inner infrastructure of partners within an alliance to support effective collaboration. • Use cases: collaboration setup and maintenance, role and resource management Znalosti 2009, FIT BUT Brno, February 4-6, 2009 K.

  11. Architecture design • Methodology: • spec. of viewpoints, perspectives, stakeholders • Scope - functional viewpoint, levels of collaboration: • Collaborative processes: modeled by patterns - business processes, incl. steps/activities, resources/artefacts, workflow structures, semantic description of processes. • Sharing services: environment for offering and contracting services, based on project-oriented workflow. • Identity federation: SPIKE as mediator to enable access to internal resources of/between alliance partners.
